We are agreement with the researchers in this study. Here atChicago Prostate Cancer Center, we thoroughly evaluate each patient to determine whetherandrogen deprivation therapy (commonly known as hormone therapy) is necessary. We have collaborated with researchers at Harvard Medical School on this very topic. Our studies have shown that hormone therapy is NOT without side effects and patients should be selected carefully.

One of the risks of hormone therapy is an increased risk of cardiac-related deaths and all cause mortality. Please review abstracts of our work on this topic at the links below:
